Paytoop neighborhood in Bojnurd in among those neighborhoods that are confronted with worn-out area problem, while have a potential capability to attract people. In spite of the implemented renovation plans, and having a long history and great capabilities, this neighborhood couldn&rsquot have any progress in constant spatial development, and we are still witnessing a horizontal expansion in th...

BACKGROUND After renovation of the adult intensive care unit (ICU) with installation of ten single rooms, an enhanced infection control program was conducted to control the spread of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) in our hospital. METHODS Since the ICU renovation, all patients colonized or infected with MRSA were nursed in single rooms with contact precautions. The inciden...

Many building-related health problems coincide with moisture damage and mold growth within a building. Their elimination is assumed to improve indoor air quality. The aim of this study was to follow the success of remediation in two individual buildings by analyzing the microbial flora and immunotoxicological activity of filter samples. We compare results from samples collected from indoor air ...

The main aim of this paper is to present the characteristics of business renovation efforts and research into some aspects of the business process and information modelling. Different business-rule categories are discussed and the relationships that exist between business rules and other business-related concepts are presented. The paper also introduces a business activity meta-model as an inte...

in this research, the effects of combine renovation as a mechanic harvest evaluation index of wheat were studied. results show that this renovation has decreased wheat losses by 1368 thousand tons which worth 2462400 million rials. two scenarios were investigated. first, under real condition with earmark of government subsidies for purchasing machines, was studied at both guaranteed and world p...

Abstract The conventional renovation practices, which are mainly characterized by time-consuming manual on-site techniques, partly contribute to the low rate. Accordingly, a faster and more efficient approach is necessary. implementation of prefabricated systems could offer possible solution. These increasingly being studied, but little known about their environmental impact. Hence, this study ...

The article presents an analysis consequences abandoning renovation works. aim this is present a method preliminarily planning renovations MRUB (Managing Un-renovated Buildings). This decision-making support based on case omission renovations. may lead threat stability buil...

We present our preliminary work in developing augmented reality systems to improve methods for the construction, inspection, and renovation of architectural structures. Augmented reality systems add virtual computer-generated material to the surrounding physical world. Our augmented reality systems use see-through headworn displays to overlay graphics and sounds on a person’s naturally occurrin...

Phytoplankton inhabiting oligotrophic ocean gyres actively reduce their phosphorus demand by replacing polar membrane phospholipids with those lacking phosphorus. Although the synthesis of nonphosphorus lipids is well documented in some heterotrophic bacterial lineages, phosphorus-free lipid synthesis in oligotrophic marine chemoheterotrophs has not been directly demonstrated, implying they are...
